00:00The country is going to celebrate its independence day, but let me tell you that in the fight for independence, the Hindu college of Delhi University also played an important role.
00:14In fact, the establishment of the college itself was done to promote the fight for freedom.
00:18And at that time, the center of many revolutionaries was the Hindu college.
00:22Let's know from the publicity of the Hindu college, what was the contribution of the Hindu college to the freedom struggle?
00:28The Hindu college was built in 1899.
00:31So, it is obvious that our college had the ability to play a significant role in the freedom struggle.
00:40In fact, if we look at the history of our college, we find that this was the basis for its establishment.
00:50At that time, there was a lot of pressure from the British.
00:53And the educational institutions that they had opened, were all British type of education.
00:59There was no nationalistic education.
01:02So, this college was established by the traders of Delhi.
01:1013 students went to this college.
01:12Their motive was that there should be a nationalist education in which caste, creed and religion should be above all these.
01:22And in which patriotism should be the feeling for the country.
01:26And how important it is for the country to have young minds.
01:31So, this was the premise and the basis for the establishment of this college.
01:38Along with the establishment of this college, Madan Mohan Malviya had laid the foundation stone on the day of Basant Panchami.
01:46So, this foundation was very strong.
01:51And everyone had high expectations from this college.
01:57Mahatma Gandhi, Sarodini Naidu, Annie Besson, Dadabhai Naoroji.
02:03These were all regular visitors.
02:07And the college had a parliament-type role from the beginning to teach the students.
02:14They also participated in what we have in the records.
02:18You will be very impressed to know that we participated in the proper freedom struggle.
02:26Chandrashekhar Azad got shelter in the college hostel.
02:30He hid when the Britishers were looking for him.
02:33So, Chandrashekhar Azad was given shelter in his own place by the warden of the college hostel, Nigham.
02:42And he took a blow from the Britishers by hiding him and saying that Chandrashekharji is not here.
02:51So, he gave an example of bravery and bravery.
02:56And that was in the veins of our college.
03:00It was a very common thing in the college that big leaders, big freedom fighters used to come to the college.
03:09And they used to encourage and educate our young students.
03:14And they used to participate in the freedom movement with enthusiasm.
03:19So, this was the culture of the college.
03:22And that culture can still be seen today.
03:25Many such people are involved in today's life politics.
03:31They are doing a lot for the country.
03:34Like our alumnus, Hardeep Singh Puriji, Rao Inderjitji,
03:40Chief Minister of Arunachal Pradesh, Pema Khanduji,
03:45Meenakshi Lekhiji, Subramanian Swamy is also here.
03:50And we have shown this enthusiasm in many ways.
03:55All our alumni have reached such heights.
03:59They are also fulfilling their commitment to their country, to their society.
04:08Whether it is in Judiciary, from YK Sabarwal to Ravinder Bhattji, Rekha Palli Madam,
04:16Mini Pushkarna, Siddharth Muradul,
04:20our Chief Justice and Justice Mohan,
04:25all these people are from our Hindu College, for whom we feel very proud and are very inspired.
04:32If we look at the bureaucracy,
04:35starting from Raj Bhargav, who became the Chief Secretary,
04:40earned a lot of fame, did a lot of developmental work.
04:43From there to today, you can see Vikram Misri,
04:46Foreign Secretary in External Affairs.
04:50There are so many people in between, Muktesh Pardesi,
04:53IPS, there are so many people,
04:55Vinod Rai, our IAS.
04:57In the literary world, we had Kapila Vatsayan.
05:02So this was the culture of the college,
05:05which was and still is,
05:08in any world.
05:10And this has been a multidisciplinary advantage from the start.
